Merge with cage article?[edit]
Most of this article concerns cages and meeting areas. The mention of the non-justice, cage-defined room that is the zoo would fit better in a dedicated paragraph on the cage page in my opinion. I'm putting it on my to-do list, so please protest if you disagree. --Nahno (talk) 16:19, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
- I'm perfectly fine with merging/eliminating some of the redundant information, particularly with cages. However, I think keeping this as a separate page would be more consistent with other articles (such as sculpture garden, dining room, etc.). It would also be nice to add some information that's actually about zoos, similar to sculpture garden. --Lethosor (talk) 17:14, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
- I disagree. A zoo is a room, which differs from a piece of furniture quite considerably. Bedroom doesn't belong in bed, office doesn't belong in throne, tomb doesn't belong in coffin, and zoo doesn't belong in cage. That being said, cage should link to zoo much like it currently links to jail (which also has its own page). --Loci (talk) 19:15, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
